About Aquila Private Security
Aquila Private Security provides armed, unarmed, and specialized security services to California businesses across the Bay Area and the Los Angeles Metro region. We serve apartment complexes, commercial properties, construction sites, financial institutions, hospitality venues, medical facilities, and high-net-worth individuals—backed by BSIS licensing, comprehensive insurance, and a commitment to operational excellence rather than commodity service.
Our Story
Aquila was built on a straightforward principle: security services should be operationally rigorous, transparent, and client-focused. We rejected the commoditized model of large national firms and instead built a company where licensing compliance, continuous training, and open communication with clients form the foundation of every deployment. From our Pleasanton headquarters, we’ve grown to serve hundreds of properties across multiple counties by staying true to that operational rigor.
What We Stand For
Operational Rigor
Every Aquila officer is trained, licensed, and held to clear standards. We maintain detailed incident reporting, conduct regular audits of our deployments, and invest in ongoing professional development. This is not optional—it is how we operate. Clients can expect consistency, accountability, and a team that takes its responsibilities seriously.
Licensing Transparency
We hold a current California BSIS PPO license, and every firearms-carrying officer holds a valid BSIS Firearms Permit and Power to Arrest Card. We do not cut corners on licensing, and we do not ask clients to trust our word without proof. Transparency on credentials protects both the client and the officer.
Client-First Communication
Security work creates anxieties. We communicate clearly, respond to concerns without defensiveness, and adjust deployments based on client feedback. A good security relationship is a partnership, not a transaction. We make ourselves accessible, and we listen.
Security Licensing, Insurance, and Training
Aquila Private Security holds a current California BSIS PPO license. All firearms permit holders carry a current BSIS Firearms Permit and Power to Arrest Card. We maintain general liability and workers’ compensation insurance to protect our clients and our team. Officers complete initial BSIS-mandated training and receive ongoing in-house professional development in threat assessment, incident de-escalation, emergency response, and legal liability awareness.
Where We Provide Security Services
Our primary headquarters is located in Pleasanton, California, with a satellite office in Los Angeles. We serve Alameda, Contra Costa, Santa Clara, and Los Angeles counties on a primary basis, with statewide availability for special deployments and events. Whether your property is in the heart of the Bay Area or across Los Angeles County, we can provide same-day or rapid deployment with local knowledge and dedicated account management.
